Dr Gowda’s top tip for Bali
You are at moderate risk of Zika virus in Bali so if you are pregnant you should consider postponing non-essential travel until after pregnancy. If you are going on a honeymoon, you will need to protect yourself from mosquito bites. We can also test you for Zika virus on your return before planning any pregnancy. Please ask us for advice.

Recommended malaria tablets for Bali
It is important you are aware of the risk of malaria and avoid mosquitoes bites when travelling in Bali. Depending on the nature and duration of your journey, you may still require malaria tablets. Please ask us for advice.
What is malaria?
Mosquitoes spread malaria by biting mainly from dusk till dawn. It is a serious and potentially life-threatening infection. You are at risk of malaria in most of the tropical regions of the world but most cases occur in Sub Saharan Africa. In 2015 there were 212 million malaria cases with an estimated 429,000 deaths. 90% of these cases and 92% of malaria deaths are in Africa.
Malaria symptoms
This can be anything but the most common malaria symptoms are fever, chills, headache and overwhelming body and muscle ache. If you experience any of these symptoms within 3 months of travelling to a country where malaria occurs then you should contact your doctor urgently; diagnosis is quick and easy with a simple blood test. If you are diagnosed and treated promptly you should make a full recovery. If, however, you delay seeking help, malaria can be difficult to treat and you may become seriously ill.
Malaria prevention
You can prevent malaria in four, easy steps. The A, B, C, D of malaria prevention is easy to remember:
Awareness of the risk
Bite prevention (particularly at night time by use of repellent or nets)
Chemoprophylaxis (use of appropriate malaria prevention tablets)
Diagnosis (prompt diagnosis and treatment)

Bali General information
An island of the Indonesian archipelago, Bali is one of the most popular destinations in South East Asia. It is well known for its active volcanoes, rice paddies and pristine beaches. It is also a spiritual haven with religious sites such as the cliffside Uluwatu temple and the holy city of Ubud. More recently, it has also made a name for itself as a yoga and meditation retreat destination but has nevertheless maintained its lively beach resorts such as Kuta. For this reason, Bali welcomes a diverse range of travellers from backpackers, beach holidaymakers, honeymooners to those simply seeking enlightenment.
Whatever you do, it is important that you travel safely and so we recommend you contact us for advice on vaccines.
